Iran’s foreign ministry said it had “evidence of Western involvement in the country’s protests.”

“We have concrete information proving that the United States, Western countries and some American allies played a role in the protests,” Foreign Ministry spokesman Nasser Kanaani said.

The protests sparked by the death of a 22-year-old Iranian Kurdish woman, Mahsa Amini, in September after her arrest for “inappropriate clothing” are considered one of the strongest resistance to the country’s religious institutions since the 1979 Islamic Revolution.

On the other hand, Kanaani’s spokesman said the US claim that Iran was behind the attack on a tanker in the Gulf of Oman is unfounded.

The Pacific Zircon, a Liberian-flagged vessel, was shot down by an unmanned aerial vehicle off the coast of Oman about two weeks ago. The US Central Command said the drone was made in Iran.

Meanwhile, protests continue in Iran. The press reflects that the base militia, known as a sub-organization of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps, has increased its presence in these regions, especially to suppress protests in the Kurdish regions of the country.
